Does this have some Gladiator cues or is it just me? I don't love the looks but I don't hate it either. What do you think?

if its priced cheap i'll probably get one to daily instead of a frontier. It definitely looks like the token special kid on the cheerleading team as far as midsize pickups go. looks like a Mahindra fucked a Mitsubishi in some unholy inbred forced cousin marriage. But i don't care enough to not spend my money on it. ugly ones need love too lol.

Oh dear god….that’s butt ugly!! I thought for sure it was gonna be another electric…… 🙄

If that thing comes to the U.S market - about the only thing that’ll help its sales…. I’m sure it‘ll be much cheaper than all the competition, probably gets better gas mileage, & doesn’t Kia have that Lifetime warranty?

I have to admit, I'd drive it.

I think if they fixed the fenders it may look ok but I wouldn't care if it was cheap enough.
Also get rid of that interior center console and give it a bench.

It says the gladiator is overall 5 inches longer but the kia has a 6ft bed.

Probably not coming here but this with the diesel and manual would be pretty sweet.
